The strengh of Mirage is its Instantaneous Turn Rate. But at a kinetic energy expense.
All meteor costs a hell lot & a lower shelf lifeFYI
"The truth is that the Meteor isn’t that new at all as it has been in development for nearly two decades. Still there is no doubt that the missile is extremely impressive, but it is not necessarily the best solution for the beyond-visual-range (BVR) job for all fighters and for all scenarios."
AIM-120D is very impressive AMRAAM and its effective range is TWICE that of older AIM-120C7 model (close to 200 KM mark).
AIM-120D is very well-rounded and resilient AMRAAM - effective in both WVR and BVR engagement capacities (rare characteristic). This weapon system will deliver results in situations where even AIM-9X might not be able to.
Is the European Meteor Air-To-Air Missile Really the Best in the World?
Some would say the best arrow is the one still left in your quiver.www.thedrive.com
Some strike platforms are equipped to utilize an AMRAAM to its maximum potential while others are not. For instance, the latest F-15 variants can make the most out of an AMRAAM in potential engagements which is not possible in the case of Rafale - a medium capacity/capability Western fighter jet.
compared to what?

Going by the latest developments, I think he's not that well informed on how they'll be tackling this. Block III isn't even close to baseline Rafale.
Pak Airforce is well aware of Rafale's capabilities. We have better relations with Qataris.
And even with all that information you weren't able to shoot down an f16 in feb 2019.Yup so do we regarding F16s courtesy Israel
Didn't stop you from losing two jets to our F16s. Nakal k liye b akal ki "jarurat" hti ha jo tum logo k pass ha hi nhe.Yup so do we regarding F16s courtesy Israel
Still waiting on ur F16s? last time u mentioned, you had some inside info which ppl like us dont have... but nothing seems to be happening, like at all. lets hope this doesn't become another of ur fantasy, like the SU35s one, which u were so confident about but later turned out to be just another tall claim of inside news...
Negative. But they're working on it.
Negative about the Rafales being instructed by Pakistanis for the QEAF.And even with all that information you weren't able to shoot down an f16 in feb 2019.
Plus, some schooling for you:
Pakistani pilots fly Qatari rafales for them, instruct and guide the Qatar air force just like other Gulf States
The IAF doesn't have this leverage regarding Israel do they?
The Israeli Air Force is one of the best in the world, especially in terms of pilots. They don't need guidance from people who fly to Pakistan and get their planes shot down for tea.
Here, an Indian source for you as well, since you street shitters just dont shut up:
Should IAF worry about Pakistani pilots 'flying' Qatar's Rafale jets?
Pak personnel have been reportedly training on the Rafale since November 2017www.theweek.in
Losing two jets ? Yaa, in ur dreams.
That was a very successful interception, iaf pilots were so scared they dropped their payload in haste and run towards their bases
